Checked Eastern not the style --- already have those--- I want to clamp 1 1/2" square tubing to cross menber--saw some on a alumium trailer when in Florida last winter however can't find a web site that sells these brackets---only ones I find are the sliding bracket with a square U Bolt

Here's another source to check:
http://www.championtrailers.com/

And if you don't see what you want on-line, call them on the phone and explain what you want. Their brackets for installing trailer guide posts might work.

Champion didn't have. just the same as other U shaped flat steel with slots for Sq U bolts--- -- however found some pontoon guides at Cabela's on from your tip that have the clamps for 1 1/2 sq tubing-- I can fab the sq tubing with the bunk mount--- hopefully getting closer to the supplier that sells the clamps

I just finished changing out those slide type uprights.They suck over time.What I did was go out and got some 1"x2" aluminun 1/4" tubing and made new ones.I did use the U bolts I had before.Once cut to right height,I had drilled holes were the U bolts bolted on.Now they can't slip!

It's a long shot but check the regular hardware stores. If you find something close you can show that around and somebody might be able to direct you to a suitable part.

Good luck!
